ACIear Complexiop.

How can you expect clear complexion
when the blood is full Of impurities and
the stomach elogged? The blood becomes
impure because the liver does not act
and work OF the poison from the
system, and the certain results are blotehes,
pimples and eruptions. Purify ths blood
with Simmons Liver Regulator, and regu-
late the liver, stomach and bowels, and
then the skin will become clear.

will at once confer with his colleagues
with view to determining upon recon-

The supreme court in session at Ottawa,
Illinois, has delivered an opinion in the
anarchist case, affirming the judgment of
the court below as to all and each and
every one of the defendants. An opinion
has been prepared setting forth the reas-
ons Of the affirmation of the judgment.
The opinion is now handed the clerk to
be filed. Judge Mulkey said: While l
agree in the opinion and also the general
views of the court, l no not wish to be
understood as holding that the record is
free from errors, for do not think it is.
But none of the errors complained of. in
my opinion, were of such serious char
acter as required reversal of the judg-
ment Sheldon said: In this case the
judgment of the court of Cook county in
the case of the defendants in the indict-
ment, August Spies, Samuel Flelden, r.
Parsons, Adolph Fischer, Engel, Louis
Long, shall be carried into effect by the
sheriff of the county on the 18th day of
November next, on Friday, between the
hours of 10 o'clock forenoon and o'clock
in the afternoon, on that day. The judg-
ment of the court was unanimous. The
opinion was written by Judge Magruder,
Of the Chicago district, and is an able ex-
position of the law and previous interpre-
tations thereof by eminent jurists in this
country, as we'll Of courts bearing upon
the alleged and perhaps real errors in this
record. In his work he was ably helped
by each of the otter six distinguished
judges, who made him their spokesman,
and through him expressed their unani-
nous decision. The opinion covers 225
pages of closely written manuscript and
contains about $4,000 words. There is
but one hope left for the condemned men
and that very faint one, that is for them
to take the case to the United States su-
preme court. Such proceedings are rare,
and 1t is very doubtful ii the case gets
